If you ever find yourself saying "I need a hero", immediately stop calling Warm 106.9, Today's Soft Hits, to request Bonnie Tyler songs, and instead repair to the Greenwood Collective, as that's where Urban Light Studios and the Echo Echo Gallery have gathered a global (but Seattle-dominated) group of 75-plus alternative artists for portraits of comic book heroes and villains.

Superheroes: Good guy art is highlighted by a manga-inspired depiction of Spider-Man in action against a giant robot by local artist Sensei, and a mash-up of Captain America and The Incredible Hulk, which would undoubtedly be a box-office... um, smash

Pop Culture Characters: The sweetest of these are Deborah Scott's musculoskeletal depictions of figures ranging from Super Mario, to the cast of Scooby-Doo, to Homer Simpson, for whom saying "I need a hero" definitely means sandwiches.
